I've never been there for a function, but I love having dinner there!!

I looked at it for our wedding, but the rooms upstairs were awkward, like 'L' shaped, so it wouldn't work for a large group, but it looked great for smaller affairs.

Thanks April

Hmmm........ So nix the wedding, huh ?

Is it good for a Bridal Shower or an intimate b-day party?
Do you know how expensive it is?

Unless it's a small wedding I would nix it. It would be perfect for a smaller party, but I think they are expensive.... They quoted me anywhere b/w $75 - $95, but that was over a year ago and for a wedding (open car, cake, yadda yadda). They'd probably have a smaller scale pp menu & pricing for just one of the rooms upstairs. I would definitely suggest checking them out for that - couldn't hurt and if the price is right it would be worth it!

I know this is probably an isolated incident but I went there once for mother's day dinner with my mom & sister.

With a reservation that was held with a credit card we had to wait over an hour to get our table. 30 minutes later we finally got to order our meal. 30 minutes later when we still did not recieve our drink orders or starter courses we left. The table next to us ordered after us and were having their dinner plates cleared.

That's very odd for any good restarurant.
Did you complain? Get anything for free?

Re: CAFFE ON THE GREEN (Cross Isl. Pkwy)

I looked there for my wedding too and I agree the room is kind of a weird setup. Actually the small room is fine but when you need a larger room - they open up the partition and you get a weird shaped room. I heard from most the food is really good.

I wrote a letter to the manager but I never received a response

Honestly I was grateful they didn't charge my credit card.

Re: CAFFE ON THE GREEN (Cross Isl. Pkwy)

I didn't really like the grounds, but I'm kind of picky. It's really close to the highway. It was nice inside though. The room upstairs is a little odd shaped, but I'm sure it would have been fine. The woman who met us there was very tackily dressed and didn't seem very professional, and first impressions are everything, so I wasn't impressed.
